Little River Light photo from www.unc.edu |
The present Light was built in 1876, but the keepers house was built in 1888 to replace an earlier one, there has been a Light on that spot since 1855, the older replaced by the newer.
Cutler is located in what we Mainers call Downeast, it's a beautiful part of the State of Maine, some even say "the real Maine starts east of Ellsworth".
For more information, on this or any, of the lights find it at http://lighthouse.cc
